Bassora Training Academy
Local collegiate athletes coaching, training, and preparing Franklin County area soccer players to excel now and at the next level. The Story: Having experienced Club Soccer in the Franklin County area from the both sides of the ball, as Player & Coach, I have an understanding about the difficulty in balancing time between sports, friends, school, family, and Life in addi
tion to the financial burden of Club programs and the commuting costs to & from practice in St. We want to offer something a little different and less cumbersome than traditional soccer teams, but maintain a competitive environment where players will increase their fitness, ball skills, and improve as physical athletes while become smarter soccer players. How do we plan do this, you might ask...
The Plan: When I came back to Washington after playing college soccer, I began coaching and over 3 years of coaching High School soccer, I realized how much I had improved as a player through coaching. So the design of this program aims at embracing this concept and using it to accelerate players to the next level (whatever it may be) faster. On average each year at least 5 players from local high schools go on to play soccer at the collegiate level, whether at the Junior College, NCAA or NAIA levels. These are the best coaches any high school player could have in the off-season as they are both relatable and inspiring. So that’s what Bassora training offers: Three Coaches who have extensive College experience and believe more College soccer players can & will develop out of Franklin County.
